What this worksheet teaches

• Identify and correct sentence fragments in their own drafts.
• Use active and passive voice deliberately and explain why one suits a sentence better.
• Punctuate relative clauses correctly, deciding when commas are needed.

How to use this worksheet

Frequently asked questions

Is passive voice wrong?

No - it is right when the doer is unknown or unimportant, as in science writing. The Grade 5 skill is choosing it on purpose rather than drifting into it.

When does a relative clause need commas?

When removing it leaves the sentence still identifying the same thing. If the clause is what tells you which one, it takes no commas.

Colon or semicolon?

A colon introduces or explains what follows; a semicolon balances two related complete statements. Testing whether each side is a full sentence settles most cases.
